Things Thursday...

Where do I put these things? Oh, right...that's why I have a blog!

waka waka waka...

The cake eats the fruit. I eat the cake. 

By extension, I have also eaten the fruit.

Right?

I got some new shoes.

I've worn them once...at Jingle Bell Hell.

They were comfortable even if all that soup was not.

And no, the soup did NOT work.

For Christmas, I really want my body to work well.

I want to run freely in these (and other) shoes.

I have learned so many lessons over these past dozen years.

I really have. So many lessons.

I'm good with lessons now.

We can now resume our regular program of...

body working well.

Thank you.

I started getting stressed that I hadn't really done any Christmas shopping.

All I've done is what you see in those two white plastic bags.

Then I remembered the world might end on Friday.

I've decided to wait until Saturday to continue shopping...

if the whole Christmas thing is still on.

This is the house in our neighborhood that decorates.

There are some others that put a string or two of lights out.

A few others have those white lighted reindeer statues.

But these guys always have a huge hideous inflatable something.

Last year, it was a carousel.

This year, a waving Santa...

or maybe he's a fascist Santa.

I've bagged the idea of decorating outside our house until Saturday...

for the same reason I'm waiting on the Christmas shopping (see above).

I found this more disturbing than my husband waving at an inflated Santa Claus.

This is why some kids scream and cry when forced to visit Santa at the mall.

This is Scary Santa.

Don't pout.

Don't cry.

Here's why...

Dude is watching you.

Now back to important things...like what should I feed the cake next so that I can eat more cake?

What do you think of my new version of the food chain? How is the holiday season treating you? Do you also find that garage-trapped Santa creepy? Have you ever seen other creepy Christmas decorations?

–holiday season...holiday season...hmmmmm... O, right! That's why we have that pretty tree in the living room ;-) This was the first truly creepy Christmas decoration I've ever seen. It's not a picture...it's actually a stuffed, life-size Santa in there...I snuck up and peeked in. Sooooo creepy.
